Long before underslung generators, electric heat, large windows, step lights, mandatory roller bearings, and digital cameras, I caught this wood sided CP caboose in TH&B's Aberdeen Avenue yard in Hamilton, ON.  The van was surrounded by a nice mix of old TH&B/CP and newer CP equipment.  Most, if not all of the TH&B stuff would be slowly scrapped over the next few years.
